\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Significant effort did go into this.\u00a0 Late nights looking through various Latin translations of interesting words in the Notre Dame Latin-English online translation tool, to stopping on the side of the road while driving to some distant meeting just to SMS text a naming idea to myself so I wouldn\u2019t lose it.\u00a0 Late night email exchanges with my sister Navida, about alternatives for <em>ethics<\/em>, <em>truth<\/em>, <em>beauty<\/em> and other fundamental words that I hoped to find available as potential internet domain names.<\/p>\n<h3>Content Behind the Name<\/h3>\n<p>Presently, I run a focused advisory group that helps early and late-stage start-ups, and their supporting angel investors, venture capital and private equity firms, in working with their portfolio companies to\u00a0develop the most accelerated growth strategy to drive ROI for year 1, 2 and to set up for successful exit events.\u00a0 I also help small and medium sized companies consider strategies that accelerate their growth to the next level.<\/p>\n<p>In a word, I am a coach and a mentor to some very innovative and bright people working at some great companies \u2013 great now, and great in the future.<\/p>\n<p>After living in Seattle Washington and then the San Francisco Bay Area for 18 years, I have spent the last 10 years growing companies, and learning how to apply the experiences I have in ways that help others grow.<\/p>\n<p>I work with and through a team of a number of colleagues with functional and domain specific expertise.\u00a0 Together, we are a virtual company of chief advisors that help companies build and grow through a strategic plan around products, services, delivery models, and customer-centricity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of course, SteinVox is a blog, my blog.\u00a0 But coming up with the name, was an exercise in my mind working in mysterious
